Download Maps HERE

Included in the ZIP are

• Bump Maps

• Normal Maps

• Micro Detail Normal Maps

• Micro Detail Roughness Maps

• Top Coat Roughness Maps

To use these maps, you'll need Genesis 8.1 along with this asset or similar ones: Skin Detail Resource 4.

If you want to use your Genesis 8 textures on a Genesis 8.1 model, follow these steps:

• Save your current Genesis 8 morph/shape:

  • Select your Genesis 8 character.

  • Go to File > Save As > Shaping Preset and save it with a desired name.

• Load a Genesis 8.1 character into your scene alongside your Genesis 8 model.

• Apply your shaping preset to the Genesis 8.1 character:

  • Select your Genesis 8.1 character.

  • Locate your shaping preset in Content Library > Presets > Shaping and apply it.

• Use the Skin Detail Resource 4 asset on your Genesis 8.1 character:

  • In the Surfaces tab, you will see new options like Detail Enable to enable detail textures.

  • Apply the provided Micro Detail Normal map and Micro Detail Roughness map.

• Transfer textures from Genesis 8 to Genesis 8.1:

  • Select your Genesis 8 model.

  • Go to Surfaces and select a body part (e.g., arms).

  • Click on the base color texture and then Browse to locate the texture files.

  • Copy the texture location and replace the base color and translucency color textures on the Genesis 8.1 character with your Genesis 8 textures.

• Replace the current textures on your Genesis 8.1 model with the maps provided in the ZIP file:

  • Each map is appropriately named (e.g., ArmsBump.png for the arms bump map, FaceNormal.png for the face normal map).

  • For the FaceSpecularLobeRoughness(2).png:

    • Apply it to the face specular lobe roughness 1.

    • Click on the texture, go to the Layered Image Editor, check Invert (negate), and click Accept.

• Fix the neck texture issue:

  • If the neck area hasn't changed after applying your textures, it's because Genesis 8.1 textures work differently.

  • Go to Surfaces, then Head, and change the UV set from Base 8.1 Female to Project Eyeray UVs - G8F.

  • Replace all the textures in this section with the torso textures from your Genesis 8 model and the torso textures from the ZIP file.

Following these steps will ensure that your textures and details are correctly applied to the Genesis 8.1 character.
